New Channels Not Regenerating

Post by grahamleggat » Thu Oct 27, 2005 12:25 pm

Hi Alan

As you know Sky3 and ITV4 start broadcasting in the next few days.

When you go to the radiotimes web site you can add these channels to your favourites and see what programmes are going to be broadcast.

When I use your grabber the regenerate channels, they don't appear in "userchannels.txt", so I can't prepare SageTV for the new channels in advance.

Is this the radiotimes end or is this something in your grabber that needs looking at?

Thanks once again

Graham

i think they have simply not been added to the xmltv system yet, they will likely be on ids 1960 and 1961 when they are available so you could manually add them to channels.txt but they wont work until the channels are actually available
